For Every Bag of Food Purchased, PetSmart Charities™ Will Distribute
Food to Animal Shelters; Expected to Serve 500,000 Meals in First Year
Alone

PHOENIX–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Pet lovers can now feed their own pets a wholesome meal and serve one up
to a pet in need. PetSmart, Inc., announced today the launch of Good
Natured™, a new, philanthropic and natural dog and cat food brand
available exclusively at the more than 1,400 PetSmart stores and online
at petsmart.com.
For every bag of food purchased, PetSmart will donate a meal to a pet in
need through PetSmart Charities or PetSmart Charities Canada.

The dog food donations will benefit thousands of PetSmart’s shelter
partners, freeing up the shelters’ precious funds for adoption and other
life-saving programs. PetSmart expects donations from customer purchases
of Good Natured products to reach 250,000 pounds of food – equivalent to
500,000 meals – in the first year of sales.

“At PetSmart, we know pet parents want the best for their pets. That’s
why we are thrilled to launch this wholesome, quality food that is also
affordable,” said Eran Cohen, chief customer experience officer,
PetSmart. “Good Natured’s natural formulation is a great match for pet
parents who want to serve up a healthy option to their own pet, while
also providing a wholesome, nutritious meal to pets in need.”

Good Natured is a value-priced, natural, wholesome pet food. It features
quality, real ingredients, with meat as the first ingredient, and is
free from corn, wheat, soy, artificial preservatives, colors or
flavorings to keep pets healthy and strong. Dry and wet food options are
available for cats and dogs, and the largest package size is available
for under $30.

The new brand is now available for purchase at PetSmart stores across
the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico, as well as online at petsmart.com.
